Weed Warriors

8 March 2011


Favorite weeding tools lined up in battle array. 

Weeds like rain, even more than city water. So the weed warriors set out to eliminate the latest crop of robber barons that would steal nutrients and soil moisture from my plants.

For those who like to identify the opposition, try the Weed Photo Gallery from UC Davis. (Makes me proud to be an alum).
